From the depths of Chicago, The Warehouse to Paradise Garage, The Sound Factory to Studio 54 came HOUSE.
The Hacienda and Turnmills, Hard Times and The End…HOUSE and more HOUSE.
Friday till Monday, HOUSE every weekend and all weekend long.
The London Orbital M25, anywhere and everywhere,
Every weekend just HOUSE.
Space and Amnesia, London, Paris, New York.
HOUSE is our history.
It overcame racial divides and united the masses,
HOUSE music changed the world.
HOUSE is a feeling and a release,
A tribute to those who work hard every week and let themselves go.
HOUSE is hope.
HOUSE is working hard to relive that feeling every single weekend.
HOUSE is more alive than ever before.
This is the story of how a man called David Zowie has captured the heart of HOUSE, and how we live it EVERY WEEKEND.

May 7th, 2015 - Hopeless Records is thrilled to announce the signing of What's Eating Gilbert, the new musical endeavor of New Found Glory's lead guitarist, Chad Gilbert. Additionally, the band has announced their new album, That New Sound You're Looking For, which is set to release via Hopeless Records on July 10th! The first single, as well as the album pre-order, will be available on June 2nd.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Charleston, SC's Heyrocco has announced their debut LP, Teenage Movie Soundtrack, out June 2nd via Old Flame Records (US) and June 8th via Vital Music Group (UK/Europe). Influenced by an era when alternative, guitar-driven rock and angst-fueled jams ruled the airwaves, the trio crafts '90s-inspired pop tunes updated for modern times.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sick Sad World is a lot of things. It’s coming up next on MTV’s Daria and it’s a more than apt summary of where we as humans have taken things and where we’re going. Most importantly, however, it’s a band in a cartoon universe within the mind of Jake Jones, an Olympia-born and Seattle-residing skateboarder, kickboxer, and smoothie enthusiast who, on Fear and Lies, out on 4/21/2015 through Seattle upstart Help Yourself Records, has knocked out 11 guitar pop gems ready for their inclusion on the classic hits playlists of the future.

Joe Oxley, the one and only man behind TVAM, describes his sound as Post-Internet, motivational slime-punk and we totally dig it.

Have You Ever Seen The Jane Fonda Aerobics HVS?
Announce UK Tour For October 2016

Have You Ever Seen The Jane Fonda Aerobics VHS? Have announced that they will be touring the UK in October 2016.

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE JANE FONDA AEROBIC VHS? is a strange bird in the Finnish rock scene not only because of it's long name, but also because the band doesn't have a guitar player.
Instead melodies and distorted sound walls are created by good old Casio and Eco-organs. Packed with 60's girl group/soul-melodies, bubble gum punk riffs and pounding drums, which will make your
eardrums bleed, this newcomer is truly something to get to know. HYESTJFAVHS? gets it's influences from a rather wide range of genres: all the way from garage rock to doo-wop, rock'n'roll to
80's dream pop and 60's soul and girl groups. Full UK Tour dates below.

Not 80s ephemera but there is a 90s cover band in this region that's called White Ford Bronco, and I find it in marginally poor taste (haha, murder, so droll)

There's another 90s cover band called the Bayside Tigers, which needed to be explained to me (hi i am an old)
